tesa puts safety first with the launch of strongest ever filament tapes

tesa is launching a new range of high strength filament tapes suited to a variety of industrial applications, from palletising and bundling to end tabbing, carton sealing, transport securing and fixing.

The ability to resist breakage or tearing under tensile stress is one of the most important and measured properties of materials used in fixing, securing and sealing goods.

Offering excellent tear resistance, the new tapes are also the strongest ever to be produced by tesa. Even if the tape is damaged on one side, the backing will not break and all importantly, the tape will hold objects tight and intact.

General purpose tapes, tesa 4591 and tesa 4590, are the first products to be launched. These PET film based tapes are suitable for use in room conditions
